MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Tensions between residents and federal immigration officers continued to rise in the Twin Cities area. Officers responded with tear gas to a crowd of whistle-blowing bystanders in Minneapolis who came to see the aftermath of a car crash involving immigration agents, just a few blocks from where a woman was fatally shot last week. Students from Roosevelt High School staged a protest against her killing.
